Russ and Jules decided to start a video game company called RJ Videos.

1.Russ and Jules decided to start a video game company called RJ Videos. They mutually agreed on a list of people they wanted to hire for the company. The first person they hired was Russ’s aunt, Marie, who had just turned 45, and was an established neuroscientist and psychiatrist, to do their research and development regarding which types of video games are most addicting.

 

The next persons they hired were Blue and Greg, excellent programmers, to help them program the video games. A year later, after launching their first video game, which did not become as popular as they had anticipated, Russ and Jules decide to make massive organizational changes, fire some people, and start looking for replacements immediately:

(a)Marie was fired and was told that the company targets younger people who like video games, and therefore, she is not a good fit with the company.

(b)Greg was fired because he refused to dress up as Santa Clause for the company’s holiday party, stating that he does not celebrate Christmas, and offering instead to dress up as a Hanukkah candle.

Discuss separately, whether Marie and Greg have any claims against RJ Videos. Explain.

 

2.Marissa applied for a job as a greeter at a BigBox store in Brooklyn. BigBox employs over one million people nationwide and has annual revenues of over $2 billion. A greeter’s responsibilities are to welcome customers to the store and to return shopping carts to the storage area. Marissa is confined to a motorized wheelchair because of a chronic illness, but would be able to welcome customers. She would be able to return shopping carts, as she did in her previous job, if the ramp to the cart storage area were reconstructed to make it less steep. Reconstructing the ramp would cost about $4000. Ned, the manager of the store, has told Marissa that he will not hire her because he does not want the expense of reconstructing the ramp.

 

Does Marissa have a claim against BigBox for the failure to hire her? Explain, discussing what Marissa must prove and what obligations BigBox has.
